The Ka-Band Probe Radar (KPR) is a compact, airborne radar system developed by ProSensing Inc. It measures radar reflectivity, Doppler velocity, and spectrum width profiles at a frequency of 35.6 GHz. It has selectable range resolutions of 30, 75, 100, or 150 meters and has a data rate of 5 Hz. KPR includes a pair of 14 cm flat-plate arrays with a 4.5-degree beam width. It is installed on the aircraft in a standard Particle Measurement Systems (PMS) canister
